In vitro propagation of Etlingera elatior (Jack) (torch ginger)

An efficient protocol for complete plant regeneration from suckers of Etlingera elatior (Jack) has been developed. The addition of N6-benzyl amino-purine (BAP) (0, 13.32, 22.20, 31.08, and 44.40 μM) to the culture medium comprising Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal salts, 3% sucrose, 0.4% Gelrite™ did...
